Environmental and climate protection – securing the natural basis of life
Climate change, biodiversity loss, and increasing pressure on our natural habitats are among the key challenges of our time. They affect not only the ecological foundations of our lives, but also social cohesion, regional identity, and economic prospects. Effective environmental and climate protection therefore requires solutions that are ecologically sustainable and socially anchored.
The Linsi Foundation is committed to a Switzerland in which people, communities, and organizations actively protect the environment and climate and create sustainable habitats. We support projects that raise awareness, impart knowledge, and bring about systemic changes in the way we treat nature and resources — for an intact environment, a stable climate, and a society that shares responsibility.
A livable future emerges where people take responsibility for the environment and climate.
